My Project

I am a math and science teacher, and this year I am hosting a Beading Club to give my students an opportunity to tap into their creative side and have fun!!

The materials I requested will give my students an opportunity to build their fine motor skills and planning, and social skills while having fun.

Clubs offer an opportunity for development of leadership skills, creativity, and social engagement. Because all clubs and affinity groups work with a faculty advisor, they also reinforce a culture of trust and communication between teachers and students.
